If you are looking for a good value and don't mind be away from the Orlando action and can deal with lots of traffic Floridays is a good value for the money. Rooms are spacious and clean. Rooms have a sizeable safe, I was able to store a 17 inch laptop. The resort is built in the middle of no where, in a cow pasture. They don't even have a road in to the main entrance. Traffic in the surrounding area is very heavy. The resort fee is absurd. You get nothing for the $12.00 per day they charge, except internet access. The business center charges a fortune for access and printing. The hotel staff didn't refresh the room until 5:00-6:00 pm in the evening, right when we were getting ready to get cleaned up and head out for the evening. The hotel staff does not replensh supplies like papertowels in the kitchen or toilet tissue in the bathrooms. The pool is average. There is not enough seating for hotel guests. There are no life guards on duty. We ended up having a group of young men wanting to play a game of spike football in the main pool. No other guests could use the pool because it was too dangerous and rough. This went on for several hours. The pool also closed at 10:00 pm. It would have been great if it had been open longer so when you came back from the parks, you could cool off. The combination retail store an counter service snack bar/restaurant were poor. Overall, you are paying for a nice room but the resort had no other ameneties or programs, especially for kids. Generally Orlando hotels offer some type of entertainment of the kids, Floriday's offerred nothing.

The suites were spacious 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms suited a family of 6 not usually available. Attention to detail was lacking. A pre- room check before guests arrive would be beneficial as over first 2 days I had to ask for a corkscrew;tea towels;oven gloves; and for 4 light bulbs to be changed because they had burnt out leaving room very dark. Also a number of days we were not left enough clean towels despite asking for 6 on the first day.

Facilities - good pool with lap area, leisure area, kids area and a small pool, also a hot tub nice and warm. Games room for the kids, good cafe with snacks to buy as well as food and can order room service or precooked meals to reheat later. Katie who checked us in was fabulous (but Maria was not - see below). Location - good for sea world and Disney but not amazing for universal - note shuttle stops at other hotels on the way and it's faster (but expensive) to park at universal. Staff - we requested and were granted a late check out, but the night before had a message on phone reminding us of check out at 11am. When we called to query they confirmed that we had late check out. Next morning housekeeping knocked on our door four times between 8am and 12.50pm asking when we were checking out! We were at the pool from 11-12 only to find when we returned to the room that we had been locked out. Had to walk back to reception (cold and wet) to deactivate keys because noone had told us keys automatically stop working at 11am on day of departure. Maria was complaining about other members of staff in thr preaence of guests, and was downright rude when speaking with us. Rooms are not cleaned (only sheets and towels changed). Also the bill was more than expected due to added taxes and resort fees. After our parting experience we would choose to stay somewhere else next time.

Excellent service. We loved the spa in the bathroom.Perfect for self catering holiday as you have facilities. Hidden costs for example resort fee which is not optional- this should be included in the price not added after. Also there is a charge for using the computers on site. Perfect for self catering holiday but if you are not going to use the self catering facilities there are other decent hotels which we stayed at and cheaper with free use of internet and no resort fees eg Comfort suites universal studios area (excellent).

Location is exceptional. Close to Premium Outlet Vineland and to Disney World Parks. The apartment is very spacious We have been charged for cleaning, but the only thing done was making the bed and changing towels. Dinning room table, kitchen table, bathrooms have not been touched by the cleaning lady. Bedrooms need larger closets.

We loved this resort. It was a little daunting trying to decide on where to stay in Orlando. But this resort met all our needs. We were close to both Disney & SeaWorld. The 3 bedroom condo was fabulous for our large family. The amenities were just right, without being too vast and large. The pool area, games area, adult area and cafe made our whole stay fun and easy. The Saturday live band poolside was a huge bonus. So fun! Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Large rooms, friendly staff, good location, good to have outlet mall, supermarkert and restaurants nearby, clean reception area restrooms, high-speed wired network in the rooms for free. Relatively good price for the groups and large families. Easy parking for the front building. Old fashioned room decoration for a new resort, old style electrical appliances, lack of WiFi in the rooms, lack of restaurant for the breakfast - only Sturbucks powered cafe (Not original Sturbucks !!!) with lack of tasty and diverse food variants.

We enjoyed the pool area! The pool temperature was great. When requesting towels the service was within acceptable limits. The housekeeping staff were very friendly. Consierge was very helpful Our first night we arrived late and we decided to order room service. When our order came we did not receive half of the food that we ordered and when we called to let the person know who took our order he said "well the kitchen is closed now." This was not a good start. Shuttles should be more frequent. At least one returning to the resort earlier than 7:15pm (too late with small kids).

The room service was quite limited. This should be told to quest in advance so that they don't leave a tip for nothing.

The location and the pool area but thats it there is nothing else offered.. Floridays advertisement with yourslves is highly deceiving . They charge $12 a day for refresh , this is to simply put clean towels in your room and then a furter $40 per day which they say is for a full service. They do not have housekeeping supervised so no one actually bothers to clean despite the fact that we are charged for it . I complained to the GEneral manager and the President of the Group. Despite their attempts the cleaning was atrocious. I do not recommend this hotel if you are accustomed to living in a clean emvironment .

The rooms are very nice and spacious. We liked having two separate bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a full kitchen. We went to experience the theme parks and the value is so much better than staying on a park property. And its convenient to the parks. We didn't like that the resort plays music at the pool until 11pm. It is loud and we could hear it in our rooms, and we weren't located next to the pool. It kept us up ever night. We asked if they could turn it down, but they never did. They should either turn it way down or turn it off at 10 pm. We had stayed there a couple of years ago and didn't have this issue. But unless they address this, we won't be back.

The decor was very nice and the accommodations were clean and comfortable (including the beds). The bathrooms were clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. The outside landscaping was beautiful. The cleaning staff was great, and our room was always cleaned shortly after we left the room. The traffic around the hotel.

Very good for the prize, and the sizes of the suite, I like the laundry room and kitchen. Also like how the rooms are set up. Very good Hotel, but there is no access to the Pool from the inside the Hotel, you have to go around to get to the Pool. Also the hotel towels are really old and used up, needs new towels

Spacious, clean rooms; helpful & friendly staff. Lots of space to relax after a day at the theme parks. We had two minor maintenance issues which were addressed within five minutes of our call. Lovely pool, well kept. Easy access to both Universal Orlando and Disney parks. Grocery and drug stores nearby, as well as many restaurants.

We rented a 3 bedroom suite which was wonderful. My family enjoyed the hotel greatly. The staff at Floridays responded to all of our needs within minutes of a call and the concierge was more than helpful with directions, tickets, shuttles and coupons. Nothing was missed by their team which made our stay away from home even more enjoyable. I highly recommend staying here as it is not only affordable but well worth the trip. All hotels should be like this! Beautiful!

I booked a 3 bedroom suite. It was perfect for us. The suite was really lovely and had everything we needed for a 9 day stay. It was great to be able to cook when we wanted and eat out in some lovely restaurants nearby when we wanted. My 5 year old daughter adored the pool and the jacuzzi in the master ensuite. The staff were very professional and the housekeeping people were excellent. The place was big enough for us to all have our own space when we needed it. Floridays is really close to Disney and Seaworld .... and for those odd few of you interested in shopping, its right beside a great shopping complex. Its a good price and I would definitely go back. We had a wonderful stay.

Excellent 2- bedroom apartment, full kitchen with washing machine and dryer. Immaculately clean, with comfortable beds and great bathrooms - we had more facilities than we really needed for the purpose of the holiday which was to visit Theme Parks in Orlando, as we were out most of the time. The staff were great - nothing was too much trouble and I highly recommend the concierges who advise on all to see and do in Orlando.

Excellent location close to main attractions (Disney, Universal, Sea World) and Premium Outlet Mall. The pool was great and suitable for kids as well. The 3 bedroom apartment was awesome and suited us extremely well, as we were traveling 4 adults and 2 kids.
